ProVentive and Commonwealth Care Alliance Sign Agreement
ProVentive, a leading provider of intervention management technology for the health care industry, announced today that the company has entered into an agreement with Commonwealth Care Alliance, Inc. (“CCA”) to deploy ProVentive’s advanced intervention management tool—-ProVentive 2.0—-for CCA’s senior care and Special Needs Plan products. CCA coordinates medical services for seniors and individuals with disabilities covered by both Medicare and Medicaid throughout Massachusetts. ProVentive 2.0 includes powerful predictive risk identification, comprehensive analytic profiling tools, advanced workflow automation and robust evaluation capabilities.
By integrating ProVentive’s proprietary software with its own care management capabilities, CCA will more accurately identify seniors and individuals with disabilities at risk of avoidable health events so clinical interventions are timely and optimize both resources and results. CCA’s network of physicians and nurses will monitor patient care, recovery and outcomes of their interventions using ProVentive’s web-based care coordination system. CCA will be able to track health risks for its members, as well as social, financial and other factors affecting the ability of seniors to remain independent in the community.
ProVentive CEO Jim Fitchett commented, “I am excited about the opportunity to partner with Commonwealth Care Alliance. Its considerable experience serving this high-risk population demonstrates its unique ability to serve the most complex and difficult cases. These capabilities are valued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services as being crucial to the lives of our citizens and critical to ensuring the most effective use of resources.”
CCA President and CEO Robert J. Master, M.D. added, “We are very much looking forward to working with ProVentive. Its technology will enable us to better serve our clients and provide more detailed results for our clinicians.. I have worked with the leadership of ProVentive for many years, and their commitment to quality and care is very consistent with our mission. This partnership brings two value-driven organizations to new levels of collaboration.”
